Lenovo, the company that leads PC manufacturers worldwide in unit shipments, leverages multiple solutions within Adobe Marketing Cloud: Adobe Analytics, Adobe Target, Adobe Social, and Adobe Media Optimizer. Years ago, Lenovo went through a strategic assessment to see what was working on the website and Adobe offered ideas on potential opportunities.
Ashish Braganza from Lenovo was tasked with achieving an 8-fold ROI on the Adobe investment. He achieved a 12-fold return. In Australia, Christopher Jowsey has seen a 20:1 ROI on search investments. On this video, check out some of the cool things that Lenovo is doing with Adobe solutions.

In this Adobe/STC booth interview, Mark Baker (Principal Consultant, Analecta Communications) shares new reasons why re-use with structured is so critical. "Re-use is a really important aspect of technical writing today." Structured writing is about adding a structure to your text to make it a "query-able" set of content. We must realize that people no longer read our content in a linear order. Because content is modular and must be capable of being reordered on short notice, we need "plug-and-play" content, where all links will work when components are moved.

Documentation exists to support the application, not just to be read. Traditionally, we have written long procedures with a great deal of overlap, and often more information than the user is seeking. Topic-based authoring with topic, concept and task allows you to write very targeted information with a high degree of reuse. Updating projects is much easier to do with DITA. Topic-based authoring is much more focused, and easier to stay on target.

Lenovo, the company that leads PC manufacturers worldwide in unit shipments, leverages multiple solutions within Adobe Marketing Cloud—Adobe Analytics, Adobe Target, Adobe Social, and Adobe Media Optimizer.

Lenovo tasked its digital marketing team with delivering an annual eight-fold return on its investment in the program. Within the first two quarters of expanding the program, the team exceeded the goal with a twelve-fold return.

Editing Images with Natural Language:
Photo editing can be a challenging task, and it becomes even more difficult on the small, portable screens of mobile devices that are now frequently used to capture and edit images. To address this problem we present PixelTone, a multimodal photo editing interface that combines speech and direct manipulation. We observe existing image editing practices and derive a set of principles that guide our design. In particular, we use natural language for expressing desired changes to an image, and sketching to localize these changes to specific regions. To support the language commonly used in photoediting we develop a customized natural language interpreter that maps user phrases to specific image processing operations. Finally, we perform a user study that evaluates and demonstrates the effectiveness of our interface.
